What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 21 September 2022
Pupils at Stilton 'flourish through friendship', as their school motto suggests. The listening and caring ethos encouraged throughout the school supports pupils to be confident and achieve well. Expectations of pupils are high; this includes for those pupils with special educational need and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils are taught to be curious and ask questions. The ambitious curriculum gives pupils the knowledge and skills they need. Pupils enjoy debating about different views, such as which charity they should raise money for. Pupils say they feel safe and hardly ever see anything they would describe as bullying. Unkindness is rare. However, if it happens staff deal with it immediately. Pupils behave very well and meet the expectations set for them. In the playground, pupils organise their own games and look out for one another. In class, pupils concentrate for extended periods of time and show exemplary attitudes to learning. All pupils, without exception, benefit greatly from the wide-ranging activities and clubs on offer. The range of sports, music and arts clubs enhance pupils' talents and interests. All pupils are provided with rich opportunities to experience, which further supports their understanding of the world around them. Pupils are well prepared for secondary school.
What the school should improve
- In a small number of foundation subjects where the curriculum is new, assessment practices are at an early stage of implementation and therefore have not been monitored. Leaders should ensure that subject leaders monitor the assessment information gathered to identify any further refinements needed for their curriculum to have the impact leaders expect.
- Governors do not always have secure enough expertise to ask enough probing or follow-up questions about leaders' actions. Leaders must ensure that further training is in place so that governors can scrutinise and hold leaders to account for an even greater impact.
